Chapter 475: 2008 Osaka Grand Prix

?On May 10, 2008, Nagai Stadium, Osaka, Japan.

The annual Japanese Grand Prix is ​​in full swing. Osaka, the host city of last year's World Championships, still attracted a lot of spectators to watch this year's Grand Prix.

At the 47,000-seat grandstand, the attendance rate reached nearly 20,000, which is a rare high attendance rate in the stadium after the World Championships.

In the rest area, Gu Kai glanced at the men's 100-meter entry list for the Osaka Grand Prix in Japan, then glanced at Ye Chin, and asked a little strangely: "In previous years, there were so many local Japanese players in the men's 100-meter race? "

Ye Qin stood aside, tying his shoelaces, glanced at the list in Gu Kai's hand, and then slightly nodded, "It's basically the same, but in the past, there were basically some good players in the United States. Come to the competition. Like Leonard Scott, Jax Trin and the others. This time, there should be a few."

Gu Kai nodded, "I saw a few foreign players, but they should not be particularly famous. I don't know many of them."

The two arrived in Osaka the day before yesterday. This is the first time that Gu Kai went to Japan to participate in the Osaka Grand Prix. He still doesn't know much about some international players. After all, coming to Osaka to participate in the World Championships last year is still somewhat different from the Grand Prix.

Unlike the domestic Grand Prix at Shenghai Station, which can gather many top players from all over the world, the Osaka Grand Prix is ​​probably due to the beginning of the year. The players who are really willing to participate each year are mainly concentrated in China, the United States, Australia and Japan.

At this time, Central America also has Grand Prix and Invitational, so it is not very attractive to athletes who are far away.

Moreover, many sprinters who are not particularly top-notch sprinters, if not for each other are active in various IAAF competitions, coupled with the relationship between language and nationality, it is still difficult to get acquainted with each other.

"Ye Qin, I think you have been a little tense, why, do you have any ideas for this game?"

Gu Kai was next to Ye Qin and watched other players participating in the competition for a while. After observing for a while, he looked at Ye Qin again. He seemed to see some abnormalities in Ye Qin. Compared with the previous competitions, Ye Qin today It seems very quiet, and there are not many words, mainly in silent stretching training, and then check the spikes, number plates and so on.

"The seniors can make preparations later. For this game, I will test and see the results of my winter training." Ye Qin looked lightly. After checking the spikes, he bounced slightly on the spot and turned his head towards Gu Kai said.

"Huh?" Gu Kai was startled slightly, then looked at Ye Qin, he felt the fighting spirit and strong competitive spirit hidden in Ye Qin's tone.

Among the players participating in the Osaka Grand Prix today, none of them can pose a threat to Yeqin, but Yeqin's arena is no longer limited to here, but faintly against others in the air.

A few days ago, Jamaican Youssé Bot ran 9.76 seconds to pass to the track and field team, which caused a sensation. After that, many media came to interview Ye Qin, wanting to find out from his mouth.

"This……"

Gu Kai heard Yeqin say that he would test his winter training results and ask him to make preparations. The implication of this is already obvious, that is, Yeqin should go all out in this game, or he should be able to take it. Going out of the spirit of facing the competition, even if there is basically no master in this Osaka Grand Prix.

What he has to do is to follow Ye Qin as everyone discussed in the track and field field of the General Administration of Training a few years ago, and under Ye Qin's pressure, he can play his best level as much as possible.

Athletes want to create performance requires many factors of the right time and place, but good opponents are one of the most inspiring factors to run the best results.

Just like the African men's 100-meter record holder, Fasuba, his 9.85 African state record was run out of the Doha Super Grand Prix in 2006 under the pressure of competing with Jax Trin.

In that game, Jax Trin pinged Asafaville's world record. Although this result was cancelled due to drug testing issues, Fasuba in the same game was stimulated by a strong opponent to create The highest in a personal career.

Now, Yeqin will get serious in this game, which means that if he can withstand the pressure that Yeqin brings, and stimulated by Yeqin's speed within 10 seconds, maybe...maybe he can really make another creation. A good result, ran into the Olympic A mark.

Looking at Ye Qin, who was seriously preparing for the game on the sidelines, Gu Kai couldn't say anything for a while.

He has always been quite arrogant among many athletes.

Not only is he good at sports, he can surpass the domestic first-class level in the men's 100 meters event, and he still enters the university with a high score, um, it is a real blooming of both styles and sports.

But facing Ye Qin, almost everything he could be proud of was suppressed. Especially in the sprint event, Ye Qin's appearance is almost a miracle in the history of Chinese track and field.

Now his self-breakthrough needs Ye Chin, a junior, to stimulate him in the arena, which makes his proud heart somewhat unhappy, but competitive sports is like this, one hundredth of a second faster, that is the difference between winning and losing. Faster than a tenth of a second, that is two different levels of players.

And let’s take a step back. After practicing sports for so many years, now that the Olympic Games are held in my own country, such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Only an athlete does not want to miss it.

This is his best time. He is at his personal peak in age, and the stadium is his home court. It is really tragic to be able to show up in front of the people of the whole country. To be able to get the standards of the Yanjing Olympics, this life will not be in vain. Up!

"Gu Kai, you have to come on! Olympic A mark, you can!"

Long staying in the stadium, at this time, many spectators are waiting for the upcoming men's 100 meters race.

Since last year’s World Championships, Yechin’s influence in the world has increased day by day, especially in Osaka, Japan, which was the venue of last year’s World Championships, where Yechin achieved the honor of the men’s 100-meter and 200-meter double champions, not only It caused a sensation and conquered the city of Osaka.

When Ye Qin appeared in front of the men's 100-meter starting line of the Nagaju Stadium, he himself was somewhat surprised that the current Japanese audience would welcome him so warmly.

In many places in the stands, Ye Qin could even see banners cheering him. Many people shouted Ye Qin's name, but the tone was a little weird. He only understood it after listening to it several times.

There are several Japanese players participating in this game, but Ye Chin did not meet his familiar opponents. No one like Asahara or Naoki Tsukahara appeared on the field. On the track, there are a new generation of young Japanese players. , Even many of them are younger than him.

"Japan still wants to reserve some follow-up talents for its own track and field~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Qin naturally understands their intentions for the arrangement of this game, so that domestic athletes can participate in the Grand Prix exercise, just like last year's Grand Prix Jean Zhang Pei Like Meng and Su Bingtian's participation in the Shenghai Grand Prix, they are all to allow the new generation of athletes to meet the world.

Of course, in general, Japan’s current best sprinters, Nobuharu Asahara and Shingo Suesu, should participate in the competition, but it may also be due to personal conditions and injuries, or busy with 4×100. M relay training is possible.

There are naturally unknown reasons for not appearing in the arena.

Probably because of this, with the exception of a few people who know more about their national athletes, many people are more familiar with Yechin than these new generations of Japanese sprinters.

As for the other Australian and American players who participated in the competition, everyone knows even less.

On the scene, the athletes have appeared on the runway, began to adjust the run-up and final preparations before the race, the race is about to begin!
